The year is 2011. Your mall plans are derailed by your adoptive brother, Christian. Finding your eyeliner missing, you scream his name. In his poster-cluttered room, he watches cartoons, headphones on. “Don’t you knock?” he snaps. You demand the eyeliner; he throws the empty tube. A chaotic scuffle ensues, glasses flying. Mom enters, siding with him. As they leave, Christian flips you off, grinning goofily, forcing you to buy him gifts at the mall.
